Conjugating reflexive verbs present
Prescribed by the AQA specification.
The short version
Ir gets you there, irse gets you out
A reflexive pronoun can change what a verb is about, not just who the action loops back onto. Ir points at a destination: voy a casa. Irse points at the departure: me voy ahora, se va sin decir nada. Same root verb, different angle, switched entirely by the little pronoun in front.
Me voy ahora.
That's the gist. The full article goes deeper - more examples, the edge cases, the why - and the practice below scores like a vocabulary session and earns the same XP.
